Illusions of the Past
Is reality as fragile as glass?
If it breaks, what will happen to our lives?
It is all an illusion of the past.
Look at the picture; blur you vision fast.
It is a laughing face; open your eyes!
Is reality as fragile as glass?
Throw a card on top; don’t slap the deck last.
Flip a card; on top you see double fives.
It is all an illusion of the past.
Is it a dancer or is it a bass?
These images are filled with easy lies.
Is reality as fragile as glass?
Fireworks explode in a color blast.
Moments later, the sound cuts through like knives.
It is all an illusion of the past.
Our reality perceptions are vast.
Life is a dream; we wake up when it dies.
Is reality as fragile as glass?
It is all an illusion of the past.
